THE HUSH JOAN OF ABC
I
New York Jan 29Mlss Maud
i Gonn the Irish Joan of Arc arrived
today on the French line steamer La
t Normandie from Havre Miss Gonne
couJd say but Ifttle about hero future
movements in this country beyond the
fact hat she would stay a month and
then hurry back to Ireland as her time
was fully engaged there She will ad
dress several meetings In the interest
of the Boers Upon the arrival of La
Kormandie at the pier Miss Gonne I I
was escorted to the Fifth Avenue hotel 1
V
The object of my visit here said
Miss Gonne is to arouse sentiment
here n favor of the Boer I have been
V in France Germany and Holland and
there have heard expressions of sur
prise that America was not foremost
in championing the Boers They are
struggling for liberty they are fighting
as you did for independence I believe
V that the sentiment in favor of the
Boers is growing and I shall do all in
iny power to fan the flame
Another reason that I am here is
to cement the unity of sentiment be
tween the Irish In America and the
Irish in Ireland That sentiment is so
strong now in Dublin that they do not
dare to march the troops down the
V main streets for fear of having them
hissed and assaulted The present
time Is the best that Ireland has ever
bad to strike a blow for freedom
In Ireland today there are only 6000
soldiers where formerly tnere were
20MO One reason that Ireland is not
in a good position to strike a blow is
ecause she had strictly followed Par
nells teaching that liberty could be se
cured by parliamentary motions It
was said that we could have freedom
by asking and holding out our hands
God knows that our hands have been
Iteia out long enough Now we see
ttfat we mustgo back to thefirst idea
freedom must come by force The spirit
In Ir Ireland today is the same as in I
V In speaking of striking a blow atI
England Miss Gonne admitted that the
constabulary must be reckoned with
She said however that England is in
n position here she must grant de
mands To nations as to the Indi
vidual she continued there comes
on hour ot destiny and Irelands hour
V has come and she must not lei a sup
One work of the Irish party is to
stop enlistment Ton years ago there
were 30000 Irish In the army and now
there are not 2500 At present recruit
ing is at a standstill
V To Jllustiate the straits to which the
V English have been put for men Miss
Gonne told the following story I was II
visiting the North Dublin hospital
when two recruiting sergeants came In
to get recruits After much labor they
secured two Both men were 111 and
the nursesaid they could hardly stand
one drill The papery in England may
be agitating that England put 50000
men In the field but she wijl have very
hard work getting them
Miss Gornie also told the story of her
recent arrest in Dublin while driving
to a meeting of Boer sympathizers

Miss Gonne will be readily remem I
bered as the young woman who has
long been known as the Irish Joan of
Arc This title was given her by the
people of Ireland in appreciation of her
ardent espousal of the cause of their
independence
j This will not be the first visit that
Miss Gonne has made to America
I Three years ago she came here on a
lecturing tour endeavoring to arouse
In the sons of Ireland In America the
spirit of 98 which dominated their an
cestors In their great struggle of 1798
and to solicit means for the allevia
tion of the misery of those who were
then in destitute circumstances in the
Emerald Isle
Mies Gonnes coming this time is to
be made the occasion of an antiBritish
demonstration if tjio plans of the va
rious committees are carried out Ever
since the beginning of hostilities in
the Transaal she has been conduct
ing a proBoer agitation her native
land advising the young men of Ire
land to keep out of the English army
and it Is said that the atmosphere of
unrest that nowpervades Ireland is
partly the result of this fair patriots
lectures which in themselves
are con
vincing but are backed by a beauty of
face and figure that la no less winning
I It was when she was only 14 I
years old that Mlaude Gonne came into
her home one day and informed her
father that she was going to do some
I thing for IrelanQ yet This statement
had something of the effect of a thun
derbolt upon the father who was loyal
to British interests Colonel Gonne
was of excellent IrJeh family but was
a conservative and as a British ofil
cer served many years as an attache
at the court of St Petersburg His
wife also shared ardently his love for
the mother country and it was con
sidered very strange indeed that the
only chllds idea should be eo diametri
cally opposed to their own
But Maude Gonne had been brought
up under the influences of the beauti
ful scenery of Ireland and knew and
loved every spot urlou ding her beau
tiful homo a Ulengarff During her
visits to the homes of the peasants she
had heard WOIderful talet of OCon
nell the Liberator and stories of the
I daring of the rebels and the redcoats
during the terrible years of the great
war Being V a very impreesioistic
child those tales affected her greatly
and Maude Gonne resolved that If there
was any one goal in life towar the
attainment of which she would devote
all her powers it would be the independ
ence of Ireland V
But soon after her dramatic declara
tion to her father Miss Maude was sent
to England to receive her education
and once there she went into society
learned music and art and fa
mous for her beauty V and cleverness
But these accomplishments were only
arming and strengthening her for the
work which she was to take up later
in life
In 1SS6 when MISS Gonne was only
20 years old V her father died leav
ing her a snug fortune and valuable
estates in Ireland Her mother had
died during her early childhood so that
she was now left an orphan She trav
eled in Europe for a Awhile with a cousin
and returned to the old home Just in
time to see the end of the McGrath
t
t
tragedy which Is still fresh in the
minds of the sons of Erin
The Bantry estate was not far distant
from the Gap of Dunloe and was on
the road to the Gonne estate at Glen
garlff While on the way to her home
I Mies Gonne Dassed large numbers of
people the men sad of expression with
eyes looking vengeance accompanied
by weeping women On inquiry Miss
1 Gonne and her cousin learned that
these people were on their way to at
tend the funeral of Farmer McGrath
who had lived In the neighborhood in
dustrious and respected for years
In appearance Miss Gonne Is tall and
rather stout with large eyes whose ex
pression changes and grows alternate
ly indignant or soft as she speaks of
the wrongs inflicted upon her people
or tella of their goodnea Her voice Is
soft and her language is as well chosen
as her arguments are convincing
During her vacations which how
ever are very short and only taken
because her physician compels her to
rest Miss Gonne devotes her time to
her favorite sport horseback riding
In music she adores Wagner she loves
the ardor and determination so charac
teristically infused into the grand com
poser and she interprets both ad
mirably She also loves the soulthrill
ing poems of Hugo and is seldom seen
without a copy of that poets works
Her supreme heroine in literature is
Joan of Arc a character whom she
faithfully Imitates and the only com
panion of her work as exofllcio am
bassador for the Independence party of
Ireland is a sagacious little monkey
which Miss Gonne laughingly calls her
I chaperon and which travels with her V
wherever she goes V

A CALL TO THE IRISH
Chicago Ills Jan 11 1900
The Officers and Members of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians in America
Gentlemen and Brothers When in the
ranks of an organization a strong senti
ment In favor of any cause Is recognized
to exist It behooves the officers of that
body to give consideration to the opinions
of the membership and act In accordance
with the wishes of the majority The na I
tional officers of the Ancient Order of Hi I
bernians In America have received from
the majority of the states of the Union in
whichrne orgalilzatlmiexlsts tmufiy sugr V I I
gestions that It would be well for the
Ancient Order of Hibernians to
give prac
tical demonstration oftheir sympathy
with the Boers of South Africa in their I
struggle for liberty
In response to the expressed interest of
the state and county officers a meeting
of the national officers and board of di I
rectors was Convened on Jan 7 1900 In
the city of Washington D C to consider i
the subject I
After dub deliberation on the subject
considering that the opponent of the
South African republic is the hereditary
enemy of the Irish race and this Is an op
portunity to assist a people struggling for
the freedom we enjoy in the United
States the national officers believed it
would be proper to call for voluntary con
tributions for that V cause from V the divi
sions and membership of the order at
large and their friends outside the ranks
In view of the fact that the neutrality
laws of the United States would interfere
with any plans to send armed assistance
to help the Boers In the field the only
form of practical aid which could be rendered
oi r J dbit
dered is such as may be Included under
the head of medical supplies or equipment
of an ambulance corps From Information
received the patriots of South Africa are
In need of medical supplies and all con
tributions of that character would be wel
comed and could be given without caus
ing entanglement with the authorities of
the United States V
Therefore anxious to V indicate In a
marked manner that we believe we
should seize every honest opportunity to
assist the enemies of England we call
upon the membership and divisions of the
order and through them on their friends
to contribute any amounts their circum
stances may permit towards the creation
of a fund which will be used for the pur
chase of medical supplies and equipment
of ninbiilhTifA cfirns in bA SAnf tn the
Transvall to aid the gallant Boers in their
struggle for liberty We recommend that
wherever practicable public meetings
should be held for the purpose of express
ing sympathy with the Boers and collect
ing funds for their aid BW also recom
mend that every possible means should
be utilized by the members Of the order
and their friends to Influence the United
States senators and congressional repre
sentatives to defeat any attempt that is
made to have a secret or public treaty or
understanding between Great Britain and
the United States
The progress of the war encourages the
belief that It may cause for England the
difficulty which could be Irelands oppor
tunity The military resources of Eng
land are almost exhausted and the Boers I
have proved their ability to defeat the
best efforts of every general sent to the
front A few more Boer victories and
Britain will be compelled to withdraw
and sink to the level of a thirdrate power
among the nations of the earth Thehope
of so glorious a result should elicit tne
bost efforts of every libertyloving Hiber
nian
The moneys must be collected with all
possible expedition and forwarded by the
divisions direct to the national treasurer

order 1
State officers and county presidents will
immediately on receipt of this official cir
cular request prompt returns to the na
tional treasurer from the divisions and
hasten collection by every means In their
i > ower
To render efficient aid quick response
is neces iry and donations should reach

Washington Jan 30J H Geiger
I who succeeded Fred Whlteside as a
state senator In the Montana legislature
when the latter was upseated was the
first witness today before the senate
committee on privileges and elections
in its investigation Of the charges
against Senator Clark of that state
I
Mr Geiger said he had been the Re
publican candidate for the senate from
Flathead county He was asked
whether he had not said in his speech
accepting tie nomination that his vote I
could not be purchase l for a Democrat
for the senate He replied that it was
his intention to convey the idea that
he could not be handled He had
said that if he aold out he hoped his
conetituents would take him out and
hang him and I still feel that way
he said
He had not said that he would not
vote for any Democrat but it had been
his intention to prevent a deadlock He
had also said that there were other
matters more important to come before
the legislature than the election of
some rich man for United States sena
tor
Upon tielng questioned concerning his
financial Condition when he was nomi
nated he said It was just moderate
He had been in the hotel business and
had sold out he could not remember
Just how much h6 received but after
much questioning said he thought the I
amount was about i2500 He had also
received 200 from his mothers estate
and had borrowed 500 for the cam
paign V
V After he was given hIs seat he had
voted twice forLeonard or senator
j and then for W A Clark Mr Geiger I
hesitated considerably over a question
as to what moneyhejhad deposited in
the First National bank at Kalispel
dnbng or since th sttting of the legls
raturebut admitted that In May last
h i ha < 332uusbt a OrejxIiur 2itOQ pay
ing currency for it HVhad afterwards
hi August opened an account at that
bank depositing 800 in currency II the
name of John H Geiger agent Since
that time he had made other deposits I
and had borrowed from the bank 2 I
300 He had gotten the 2500 first de
posited from several sources including
sane or SGOO for his service and milE > Ilr I
n OOn mn
in the legislature
V Some of it I got at poker and the
faro bank he said and added I
dont remember whether I wow any at
pokermy experience was about even
but at faro I did
Did you win 2000 at faro
I V < It was some short of 2000 but at
Helena and Butte together I think I
quit about 1500 or 1500 ahead
I You were a state senator did you
not know it was a misdemeanor to play
faroWell
Well I was about as conscientious
in that matter as some other Montana
officials
Continuing this explanation he said
I he had never made any great winning
I at one time never more than 180 but
that he had been uniformly lucky and
had played often He had also gotten
100 in money for mining stock sold to
Spokane parties V
How do you explain the fact that
you had so much better luck at faro
after you entered the legislature than
before asked Senator Chandler of
Mr Geiger
I Why senator was the reply I I
did not have I lived In Montana
twentytwo years and having fallen II i
into the ways of the people soon after I
going there I had frequently In the
i early days won more than I did after
I my election to the state senate But
I Libby has no faro bank and I had not
I played for some time
I In explanation where he had got the
4800 deposited in August he said that
while in Peoria Ills he had won 1000
in aday on a horse race All told Mr
Geiger said V he had In his possession
3600 when he reached Libby after
going home from the legislature at
Helena
I
When did you get the amount that
you have not already accounted for
I cant tell without uncovering my
private affairs
Do you decline to tell
Ldo
This caueed the members of the com
mittee to put their heads together in
consultation over the question as to
whether the witness should be com
pelled to answer At the conclusion of
this conference Mr Chandler told Mr
Campbell to proceed with his nues
tions and informed the witness that he
must rerly The question as to where
the money came from was repeated
The witncEB gazed at the ceiling for
fully five minutes and at last said
Where did I get it V Why In
Helena
Where did you get it from
The witness again took a long time
for replying Well sir he said at
last I cant answer
Do you mean to say that you dont
know V I
I dont know To be frank there
were other ways of getting monev In
Helena during the session of the legis
lature I was approached at different
times to vote for different bills
Did you make any money in that
wayI
I dont know I never sold my vote
but I got money
Senator ChandlerNow Mr Geiger V
the committee requires you to state
from whom you got money GO ahead
and tell what you know
To this the response came quickly
The witness said I found a package
in my room containing 1100 and I
have since used the money it was the
time that the corporation bill 132 was
up I took the money put it In my
pocket and used it and from that time
to the present have never said a word
about it
In reply to other questions he said
that he had an idea who left the envelope
velope In his room but that he did not
know He had he said Intended to
vote for the bill anyway
Atthis point Mr Faulkner repre
i
I I
senting the Clark interest obtained I
permission to ask a question
Will you state he asked whether
any part of that money was given you
by any one connected with Mr lark
or by Mr Clark himself to influence
your vote for him for United States
senator
But while he had permitted the ques
tion Senator Chandler as chairman of
the committee instructed the witness
that he need not answer it at this junc
ture and the examination proceeded on
the original lines
In reply to questions witness said ho
had been told that he could get 1000
or 1200 for his vote in opposition to
the bill but he declined to tell who had
made the suggestion on the ground
that it would incriminate himself
At this point the committee took a
recess until 215 p m
When the committee reassembled Mr
Chamberlain took up the line of inquiry
Where it had been left off
Who was it he asked that made
the proposition to you that you could
receive 1500 for your vote against bill
132 or bill ISi
It was common talk all over town
that money could be had for votes
replied Mr Geiger but I cant explain
further without incriminating myself
Senator Chandler insisted upon an
explanation as to how he could be in
criminated unless he had agreed to ac
cept money for his vote but the wIt
ness insisted that a further explana
tion would certainly be selfincrimi
nating and declined to answer He
would go no farther than to say that
he had told the party approaching him
that he would see about It Asked
concerning the purchases of property
in Kalispell Mr Geiger at first said
that he had not bought any but his
brother had
Whose money paid for It asked
Mr Campbell
I refuse to disclose my private af
fairs he responded
Senator Chandler urged response to
the question and after meditating for
some time the witness said that 1500
of the money that he had originally
deposited in the First National bank of
Kalispell had been used to pay for that
property He also admitted the pur
chase Of lots and the construction of
buildings dn them at Libby
Ho Conversations With Clark
Mr Geiger said he had not had any
conversations concerning the senator
ial contest with Senator Clark prior to I
the latters election to the senate He 1
had visited the senators room once on
the day of the senators election but
he said Neither W A Clark Mr
Wellcome C W Clark nor any of them
so far as I can remember ever ap
proached me in regard to my vote
But bsfore I was seated I was frequent
ly asked how I would vote if I should
get my seat and uniformly replied that
my actions would be controlled entirely
by the action of the Republican cau
cus I voted for Mr Clark when the
decision of the caucus was in his fa
vor
He had he said advised the Repub
licans against voting for any Demo
crat
In reply to the questions from Sen
ator Hoar Mr Geiger said that before
voting for Mr Clark he had convinced
himself that the charges of bribery
against Mr Clark were untrue Fur
ther responding to Mr Hoar he em
phasized his allegiance to the Repub
I lican party saying that he was a Mc
f I Kinley Republican that while he would
have preferred a gold man he thought
it best to accept the next best thing
which he considered Mr Clark Jo be
Mr Faulkner asked only one ques
tion In crossexamination and in reply
to thlflQuestion Mr Geiger repeated
that he had received no money or any
promises of any from either Senator
Clark or anyone else for him for his
vote for Mr Clark for the United
States senate iI I i

mittee on privileges and elections today

defense will begin Its presentation of
the case
Mr Campbell speaking for the re
monstrants V said he had but two more
witnesses to callto complete the pre
sentation against Mr Clark and one

ine the two together and for this rea
son was willing to rest with the un
derstanding that the two men should
be called later
To date thirtyseven witnesses have
been summoned in behalf of Senator
Clark including those whose names
have been mentioned by the witnesses
for the prosecution as being connected
with any efforts at bribery In Mr
Clarks behalf The committee has not I
allowed the defense to call men whose
names have been merely incidentally
brought intothe controversy but has
asked that only those be sent for
against Whorn positive charges have
been made
On this account only three members
of the legislature have so far been
summoned Thev are Messrs Cullen
Joaquetf and Bywater It is under

Mrs Elizabeth Malone the mother of
Father Malone were held Monday

There was a very large attendance
and the services were beautiful and
especially touching when the son sang
the Solemn Requiem Mass over his
dear mothers remains

Dugan Carrigan Callanan Philips
Casey and Scanlan V
Father Malone himself though worn
out with grief and unrest offered up
the Mass far the repose of the soul of
his beloved mother It was indeed a II
solemn and sorrowful occasion and
one seldom witnessed wherea departed
mother has the privilege of having her
only son who was her ideal whom she
loved and cherished and for whom she
sacrificed everything that he might
become a priest say the last rites over
her sacred body and indeed it was a
sacrifice for when Father Malone was

Lentz of Ohio and exGovernor Altgeld
of Illinois left Boston early this morn
Ing each speaking at a massmeeting
In the city hall at Lawrence at noon
I Mr Bryan appeared on the rear plat
form of the car at Haverill for a short
speech to about 1000 persons and also
shook hands with most of those in his
immediate vicinity receiving a bouquet
in exchange
At Dover N H where a large crowd
had gathered there was a little hand
shaking Portland was reached at 5
oclock the party being taken to the
Hotel Falmouth After a short rest
Mr Bryan was tendered a reception in
the council chamber of the city hall
Following this was the banquet in the

The speaking began at 8 oclock and
as there was another big meeting at
the Auditorium the three chief speak
ers were taken In turn from one meet
ing to the other ExGovernor Altgeld
was the first speaker at the city hall
V Given an Ovation
Mr Bryan the next speaker was
given an ovation surpassing any which
he had received at any previous time
in New England He said that when be
came Into the eastern states he came
among Democrats who are such with
out hope or reward or fear of punish
ment He sppke of his visit to Bath
in 1896 and said he learned to love his
colleague on the ticket for his sterling
dualities and manly nature
I
The eastern Democrats in 1896 said
Mr Bryan did not have a large share
in making that platform but they will
have a large share In making the next
platform which will be just like the
I last I am glad that the time is past
when either a gold Democrat or a sil
ver Democrat can lead astray any large
number of people If any of our silver
Democrats was to leave today he would
take with him just one person That
is all
Mr Bryan divided the remainder of
his address into three parts and dis
cussed in turn money trusts and im
perialism in the same manner as he
has at recent meetings
Congressman Lentz the last speaker
devoted his attention almost entirely to
the Philippine question V

a mothers toilin ner
sons behalf Is never ended liar only

is for him If she has a Mass said tis
not for herself It is for him And God
In His infinite mercy will not overlook
her for her sacrifices
